Keyboard shortcuts

Measuring, snapping and editing tools share one set of shortcuts. Use the Standard keys, the keys of Blender, Maya, 3ds Max, SolidWorks or Fusion, or your own.

  1. 1

    Presets

    Auto follows your mouse layout: with the Blender or SolidWorks mouse preset you get their keys, otherwise Standard. Presets only change actions those programs have keys for; the rest stay on Standard.

  2. 2

    Your own keys

    In Settings under Keyboard, click an action and press the new key. If another action already uses it, you can replace it or cancel. Esc always cancels the current step or closes a popup and cannot be changed.

  3. 3

    While typing

    Shortcuts pause while you type in a text or number field, so entering a value never triggers an action.
